Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| G. Mayr and A. C. Kitchener 2022 | Danielsraptor, gen. nov. differs from the distinctly smaller Masillaraptor in having pygostyle with curved caudoventral margin (straighter in Masillaraptor); cora- coid stouter, with proportionally longer omal extremity; scapula with proportionally longer acromion; humerus without pro- jected processus flexorius; tarsometatarsus somewhat stouter, with trochlea metatarsi II reaching farther distally and trochlea metatarsi IV bearing a better developed wing-like flange. Danielsraptor differs from Stintonornis Harrison, 1984 in smaller dorsal and plantar openings of foramen vasculare distale and proportionally smaller trochlea metatarsi II that reaches less far distally; distinguished from Antarctoboenus Cenizo et al., 2016 in that foramen vascular distale proportionally larger and trochlea metatarsi IV having a larger plantar flange. |
